00:00Are they a better football team than the one that got hammered by the Seahawks?
00:04You thought it was that close?
00:05Yeah, no, no.
00:06It was like a hammer and a nail.
00:09Baseball bat.
00:10Some other weapons of choice.
00:11Yeah, I think they are better.
00:12I do.
00:13I think they are.
00:14I don't think they're significantly better.
00:16Marginally better before the draft would be a good place to land.
00:19Yeah.
00:19I absolutely do.
00:20And if nothing else, swapping out Byard for Hawkins,
00:25you lose a couple guys on the defensive line, you pick a few up, that's fine.
00:28The left side of the offensive line was one of the biggest problems in the Super Bowl.
00:32And one could argue that if they had the left side of the offensive line that they do now,
00:37in said Super Bowl, might have been a better game.
00:39You got rid of Will Campbell?
00:40Who'd you replace him with?
00:42No, it's Will Campbell.
00:43Oh, Will Campbell.
00:44But he's got a veteran right left guard next to him now,
00:47not somebody who plays a different position who was out of position who also wasn't terribly good at it.
00:52Yeah, I think I don't feel real strongly about this.
00:55I think the status is kind of quo, as Bill Belichick used to like to say.
00:59I think you can argue you're better on the offensive line if Vera Tucker is healthy and plays.
01:05And you bump in Wilson to his natural position of guard.
01:07Seems like a likable guy, too.
01:08I mean, center.
01:09Yes.
01:09So that, I think, makes you potentially better.
01:12You did lose your number one wide receiver,
01:14and you have replaced him with a guy that could be a number one wide receiver.
01:19Yeah, was part of a committee, but could be looking to break out as a number one-ish
01:23or a number one in your system.
01:25Or you could just have in the back of your mind that come June 1st,
01:27you're going to have A.J. Brown, and that would significantly change your team.
01:30The one thing I will agree with him on...
01:32Could have that in the back of your mind?
01:34Yeah.
01:34Do have that in the back of your mind.
01:36The one thing I will agree with him on, the flexibility he referenced in there,
01:40I don't think they have a dead-on, gotta-get-a-starter position in this draft.
01:48So for people that are saying BPA, best player available,
01:51like, you're not, you don't need a guard.
01:53You don't need, you need an edge rusher, but I don't,
01:56like, you could start guys that are starting caliber edge rushers.
02:01I don't think you need a starter in this draft.
